I thought to myself, “Man, what a sad history to have. What a sad situation that is.” And then, the next line hit me like a wrecking ball.

But a Father is coming for us.

You adopted us in

And you made us your own

You adopted us in

And you gave us a home

Is that not the way that every Christian sees them self? As those who were once cold, starving, lost, and hopeless, but who were then sought out and adopted by the love of a Father? As those who were once outside, but, by the love of God, were brought inside? As those who were once without a home, but now are a part of a family?

Because of this immense truth, the brick street of Pike’s Market received a few of my tears.

How rich are we who call God our Father.
